Users that purchased a new license or upgraded to V-Ray 2 for Rhino, after February 1st 2016, qualify for a free upgrade to V-Ray 3 for Rhino. This free upgrade includes one workstation license and one render node.

After upgrading to v3, you will have access to yourV-Ray 2.0 license for 6 months.

Older Versions of V-Ray

With the release of version 3, Chaos Group no longer support V-Ray 1.05 for Rhino and there is no upgrade path from 1.05 to any other version.

Render Nodes

With V-Ray 3, there are various license changes. Unlike v2, there are no longer 10 additional render nodes included for distributing render load; with upgrades, this has been reduced to 1. If you used more render nodes with v2, please review the options for upgrading. The cost of extra nodes is much lower when upgrading.

Please note: Electronic licenses are currently not available for upgrades.
